Künes River

The Künes River (Uyghur: دەرياسى كۈنەس, Künəs Dəryasi), generally known in English as the Kunges River (Russian: Кунгес; Chinese: 巩乃斯河, Gǒngnǎisī Hé), is—with the Tekes River—one of the two main tributaries that form the Ili River in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. It originates in the eastern Tian Shan.

The Künes or Kunges River originates in the eastern Tianshan in the Eren Habirga Mountains and flows from east to west to merge with the Tekes River and form the Ili. It flows through glacial, alpine, and grassland environments, the latter including semi-arid, dry-steppe, steppe, meadow grassland, and mountain meadow.

Main tributaries of the Künes River include:
